Thank you to Bill and Marta Kissell of Misty Rose Florist good friends and supporters of Saint Vincent de Paul

A Saint Vincent de Paul thrift store is a smart place to shop. Our thrift store is staffed by approximately 100 unpaid volunteers who come from all walks of life. All thrift store proceeds, after overhead expenses, goes to those in need in our community.

How does our thrift store operate?

Donations are collected by the thrift store from the general public and consist of good quality furniture, clothing, and household items, etc. Our store allows lightly used commodities a second life thereby keeping the landfills less burdened and providing a low cost shopping alternative to our customers.

Every revenue dollar received by our thrift store, net of its small overhead expenses, goes to service of the poor. Therefore, the more items you purchase from us, the more we are able to help those in need. All of our store workers volunteer their time and talents.We have no paid employees.

All thrift stores are not the same. We are much more than a commercial thrift store and much more than a public charity.We distinguish our operations from others because our members, called Vincentians, are guided and inspired by gospel values. Our only work is helping the poor. You are encouraged to check the percentage of earnings that other thrift stores donate to helping the poor. Ask about the salaries and wages paid to their employees at the staff level, middle management, and executive levels. Our thrift store offers amazing merchandise at low prices because it has no wages and low overhead expenses. When you shop with a Saint Vincent de Paul thrift store you are getting value and quality for every dollar you spend and most importantly you are helping us serve those in need.
